AMERICAN DUCK SHOOTING 
By George "Bird Grinnell 
A most complete work, dealing with every phase of the sport of duck 
shooting, thus forming a complete treatise on American ducks, geese and 
swans. It gives details of the natural history, habitat, and characteristics 
of every American species.

Part II tells of every method of swan, goose and duck shooting practiced in 
North America—east and west, on Atlantic and Pacific and in the interior— 
and gives thrilling accounts of the splendid sport. 
Part III deals with the art of duck shooting, including guns and loading, the 
Chesapeake Bay retrieving dog, decoys, blinds and boats, and finally dis¬ 
cusses the causes of the decrease of wildfowl and tells what may be done to 
increase their numbers. 
It is most fully illustrated with 58 portraits of North American swans, geese 
and ducks, by Edwin Sheppard, with 8 full page plates, and with numerous 
vignettes in the text by Wilmot Townsend.
